SEND

An Inclusive Approach to Behaviour

About this event
In this session you'll discover how to create a more inclusive approach to behaviour management in schools. We’ll be exploring considerations you need to make when developing an inclusive Behaviour Policy, viewing behaviour as a form of communication, and reviewing how to handle challenges effectively.

During the session we will be covering the following:

            • Creating an inclusive Behaviour Policy
